IMPROVEMENT IN PORTABLE COOKING-RANGES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 124,412, dated March 5,1872.

I, ELIAS YOUNG, of Cincinnati, Hamilton county, Ohio, have invented anew and useful Improvement in Portable Cooking-Ranges, of which thefollowing is a specification:

My invention relates to the provision of a casing` or jacket to thesides, back, and bottom of a portable cooking-range, and to suitableapertures in the bottom casing for introducing ashes or other nonconducting substance in such jacket, which apertures are closed bysuitable caps or covers.

Figure l is a vertical section parallel with the front of the range.Fig. 2 is a horizontal section in the line X X. Fig. 3 is a verticalsection in the line Y Y.

The range proper A is inclosed on its sides, rear, and bottom, withcasing plates B, which may be of cast or of wrought iron. The space orjacket G, thus formed, may be lled with ashes or other non-conductor,which may be introduced through apertures D in the bottom casing, whichapertures are then closed With caps E that may be `screwed or bolted tothe casing, in the manner shown.

For shipping to a distance, the jacket may be left unfilled, and thenon-conductor be introduced at the place of destination, and then besecured in place by the caps. In this Way the expense of transportingthe non-conducting` material, which is easily procurable anywhere isavoided.

I claim as new and of my invention- The provision at the sides, rear,and bottom of a portable cooking-range of an inclosed space or jacket,C, formed by an external me tallic casing, B, Whose bottom portion ispro; vided with apertures D and caps E, in the manner set forth.

In testimony of which invention I hereunto Set my hand.
